This is my only anecdote apart from the one where a car with me, the same future Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, and a future MP and Strategic Authority Mayor were approaching the tollbooths on the Humber Bridge, when Tom suddenly said "shit, has anyone got any money?"

Farage (et al) literally panting for Fairford to be linked to asylum seekers and, as usual, the ludicrous demand for immediate information with totally irresponsible implication that the absence of such information is suspect.

I once interviewed a guy who arrived wearing a pair of wired earbuds and took one out during the interview, leaving it hanging down his front. We could hear tinny music through the whole thing. Now I understand why...

I think once black clad men are interfering with rescues at sea, we are past "legitimate concerns". Once they're attacking boats, and risking the lives of everyone on board, it's just thuggery. The Home Secretary's statement is on the side of criminals. There's no other way to read it.

I think Ford's Theatre should definitely be named after Trump and he should go and watch a play to mark the occasion. I hear Our American Cousin is an absolute banger.

I mean, at this point, it's fairly unambiguously paramilitarism. You've got a non-state actor using violence to further political objectives. It's flagrantly in breach of democratic principles several times over. Inaction would be the most ultimate failure of a democratic government.

Could also arrest him for this as well. Among other more likely things.

17 - Impeding a person endeavouring to save himself from shipwreck - Whosoever shall unlawfully and maliciously prevent or impede any person, being on board of or having quitted any ship or vessel which shall be in distress, or wrecked, stranded, or cast on shore, in his endeavour to save his life, or shall unlawfully and maliciously prevent or impede any person in his endeavour to save the life of any such person as in this section first aforesaid, shall be guilty of felony, and being convicted thereof shall be liable to be kept in penal servitude for life.

Worrying scenes in the Channel today, for all interested in asylum policy and maritime tactics. A small boat from Normandy spent more than 30 hours at sea. Those on board now on their 2nd rescue vessel as Border Force forced to play cat and mouse with far-right activists who have their own boat.
